    I'm kinda nervous about this one. It has trap game written all over it.

    Yep, not to mention that the Warriors, for some strange reason, always seem to have our number. We haven't won a season series against them since the 02-03 season. So for 7 straight seasons, they've either tied or won the season series, even though Golden State have sucked the past several years.

    We have to win this one, so we can have a chance to finally take the series the next time we face them.

    Anyone have a link? I'm blacked out on league pass broadband because the NBA thinks I'm in the Warrior's broadcast area...

    Nice dime by Camby, assisting on the first bucket of the game. Great back cut by Wes.
    But then we follow that up with 2 turnovers. Gotta take care of the ball against this team.

    What is it against this team? We are turning it over at an alarming rate. Luckily, the Warriors are not playing well either.

    Dre bricks it off the side of the backboard. Eek. Ugly, sloppy game so far.

    Our guards have been absolute shit so far. Wes, okay, he's a second year player and gets caught up in the bad decisions, but you'd think a veteran like Dre would know better.
